Actually lynxinsider, Lebanon is very safe. Admittedly, it is not the most stable of countries, but the risk of random violence is next to nil. Most violence is political and does not involve civilians.

To the OP, AUB is the best university in the Middle East and Beirut is one of the most culturally vibrant city in the Arab world. I cannot think of a better place to spend a year abroad.
